When Publishing multiple drawings to a Xerox Plotter, only the first sheet prints. Works on the other 3 machines in the office,just not working with the new machine just set up. Can't seem to find anything that would cause this to not print the whole job.
View 1 RepliesBefore upgrading to 2012 from 2010 (against our will), our publishing tool worked seamlessly with our XEROX 6604. Now, strangely only one user out of seven has the ability to publish a set of drawings without crashing AutoCAD. We are happy that it works on his machine, but it seems very odd that the rest of us are affected when our PCs are the same spec and setup.
All of the proper drivers and firmware are up to date.

If anyone of you could share with me the specific steps in Photoshop to create this trick or if you know of a plug-in that does it instantly, please let me know. I've tried using the Threshhold feature in photoshop, but that doesn't quite do it and it makes the image look very sharp and jagged, not smooth.

View 3 Replies View RelatedSo we have a new plotter at work, and I am trying to use it with the publish command. However, because all of our old drawings are saved with our old plotter name, choosing the new plotter isn't an option for all of our old dwgs that havent been set up using the new plotter name. Since our dwgs number in the 1000s, going through each one and renaming them would be impracticable.. but having to individually plot each one is pretty impracticable as well..
So I tried to figure out a workaround, by opening up our new template that has the new plotter configuration on it, hoping I would be able to use it to set all the old dwgs that I have open at the time to the new plot setting.. but the printer name comes up as something different when I try to use it for publish, and if I use it, I get an error and nothing prints. I know the settings used in the new template work, I have been able to print it out. So what I'm asking is, is there anyway I can use the new plotter to publish all of our old drawings?
using a plotter on a network. I moved all my plot styles to a folder on the network where everyone can use them and pointed the path on each station. My only problem now is that each station seems to have the drivers ect.. for the plotter on stand alone stations. What happens if I open a dwg on my station and then close it and go to another station I get warning that drivers are not found,the device can not be found. Do I need to copy the driver and device folders to the network and have the settings on each PC point to that folder.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have recently installed a computer system and the Plotter the client is using is a Canon W7200; Canon have refused to release any updated drivers and there were never any previous 64bit drivers that were created for this piece of hardware.
Are there any Universal Plotting Drivers? or a Generic one that can be used with all Canon Plotters?
The Add-A-Plotter Wizard has become corrupted, and will not run on any computer in the office. We get a message about missing DLLs. I think I used to know how to add plotters "by hand", before the Add-A-Plotter Wizard existed. Can I still do this, and if so, how?

View 5 Replies View RelatedSince we've migrated to Windows 8 64b we have problems wih plotting some layouts. If I select my plotter it automatically goes to none after selecting and sometimes I get the following error message:
Most of the times I can use the plotter in the other layouts / drawings, but sometimes I have to restart AutoCAD or reboot the computer before the plotter works again. In some layouts we keep getting this problem even after reboot. I've tried reinstalling the plotter (with different drivers), tried different computers, purge and recover the drawings but no luck. The Plotter is a HP Designjet 800.
Whenever I plot the 3d drawings in PDF or in our plotter, Some lines or some drawings are not shown in the printed layout. sample.jpg. try to check the red circle, there should be other stuff inside it. and in the second circle the one with the line should have a line itself, i just put some red lines to show in the drawing, but please try to check all.

How do I get my CTB file into my plotter manager? It keeps asking for a PC3 or PC2 type file. The plotter style manager creates only a CTB. The old autocad version HAD a "plot style" pic window. this one does not. I want to create a "plotter" that writes PDF's using my CTB file info.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently stopped using my HP755 plotter and am now plotting "dwg to pdf". The problem is when I go to plot I get a warning message stating that "this plotter configuration cannot be used" and it goes on to list a few reasons why and selects the "none" plotter. Then when at the plot setup page I can continue to plot as I normally would. Why am I getting this warning and how do I stop it?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhenever I attempt to print, I get the warning message below referring to a printer that I do not have. I presume it's an AutoCAD default setting, but I cannot find any place allowing me to change this default. It eventually prints, since as the warning message says, it then substitutes my Mac's default printer, Is there any way to change the AutoCAD setting.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe replaced a plotter that is used as the default plotter by 90% of our CAD files. When we go to plot it obviously can't find the plotter anymore and defaults to no printer. We then need to select the new plotter and reselect the paper size.
Not a huge issue by itself, but when you have a drawing with say 25 layout tabs it gets cumbersome.
assign this new plotter and correct page size to all layout tabs in a drawing? If not is there a way to at least have it maintain the paper size when selecting the new plotter and not have it auto select a different page size?
For some reason, when I am plotting on some drawings, the HP Designjet 5500 is printing out a tan background. I've tried copying and pasting into a new drawing, which has fixed it before, but not this time. I'm using Autocad 2008. 20120919_143304.jpg

I have a plotting issue I cannot resolve. Basically, my plotter is not plotting some bits of a drawing. Usually it just cuts 20% of it, sometimes it just doesn't plot some random objects.
